Jackie! I just picked up the exact one she was using and the 1/2″ bias tape (single fold) maker from walmart.. both were in the same package for $10… I was so excited, because I had just been to Joanns that same day and they didn’t have it..lol. 😀

Thanks so much for another lovely video. I bought a bias tape folder last year, but haven’t used it yet. I’ve read loads of tutorials on how to make bias tape, but I’ve never actually made any yet. Next time I’m at the fabric store I’m going to stock up on some cute fabrics and make a stash of tape. I think I’d be so much more likely to use it, if I already had the tape made up.

This is the first video of yours that I watched. I may be a bit biased, but… Dana, you rock the videos girl! I love the music and your quick no nonsense teaching style. I feel like I’m just sitting there with my friend Dana learning how to make some bias tape. Now that I’ve seen the video I will definitely be getting the little bias maker gadget and making my own. Thanks for sharing this in video format. Melissa

Hey, Dana! Thanks for another great video. I watch your vids to make sure I got your tuts right, and so far, so good! It’s really super to have you as a resource for my 5 year old granddaughter’s clothes. The teachers call her the fashionista. Btw, did you make your dress? It is adorable… (hint, hint) ps – thanks to you I have a basket full of homemade bias tape, and a special bin for fabric to become bias tape!

Thank you Dana! I have been making bias tape wrong for so long! I had no idea about the purpose of cutting on the bias/45 angle! No wonder i get frustrated when my necklines don’t lay flat 🙂 i need to get a bias tape maker – hand ironing it takes too long!

You are the cutest, how many takes does it take to make your videos? You are so peppy and organized, I love it! I used your tutorial back in the day when I made my first bias tape for a baby hooded towel that turned out so darn cute! It felt awesome to be able to do that, thanks for all the time you spend helping us readers out 🙂

Making bias tape always seemed so daunting to me….you make it look so easy and fun that I’m going to try it! I love that you used a fat quarter. Those come in such cute and fun patterns and are a great deal when they go on sale. Thanks so much for this amazing tutorial!! I love your video series!

I’m so not trying to be annoying, but I’m so excited for your First Day Dress!! I check everyday to see if you’ve released it! It looks like the perfect dress for my baby girl and I absolutely love your patterns! Can you tell me when it might be available??? Sorry if I’m being pesty!

Although I’ve been an avid follower for a long time that was the first video I have watched and I loved it! Bright and cheery (as always) and clear & easy to understand. Thank you, I’ll definitely be back to watch more 😀

Loving all your videos, Dana! So fun and easy. And makes sewing all alone in the middle of the night less lonely 🙂 I also love, love, LOVE this dress your wearing in this video! Is it vintage? Did you make it?? Quick question…do you press your seams open before putting your strip through the bias tape maker? I always have but if you don’t maybe i can save a step…:) Thanks!

Hi Dana. This video is the best! I’ve been struggling watching all the Pinterest tut’s and now I get it, I was working with way too much fabric. I do have a question though. Because I am making some for friends also, does it need to prewashed / pre-shrunk? Thanks!

Bias tape hand held makers are in the quilting section of Joanns. Now- why the put it there no idea other than they are pretty cheap $15.99 for 3 sizes, plus they were on 50% off…winner winner for me. Love love love them, easy custom and buckets of fun.
